The Critical Mind Says It Can’t Be Easy!

Recently I had to take some of my own advice. I heard myself whining about how difficult it has been running this website on my own, looking for a marketing/sales manager, and still maintaining my private practice while starting a little radio show, managing 20 bloggers (who are caught up in their own stuff), and figuring out sponsorship for ten new episodes. I had to stop myself and remind myself that I chose this. I created this. This is what makes me happy! It’s my passion to help people heal and be of service. My Critical Mind (what some call Ego) was invested in what makes me miserable and this Critical Mind always likes to be right. My Critical Mind says it has to be hard…so it is. Thankfully my Higher Self chimes in and reminds me to live in the moment and to find Grace and serenity. Then, suddenly I take a deep breath, decide to do what’s in front of me, and it truly does become easy. One step at a time! When I disarm my Critical Mind that is so invested in life being hard…it suddenly isn’t. What’s hard is living with the neurosis that life has to be hard! Sucker PUNCH! Take that Critical Mind…I win! I’m calling YOU out! Life is fun! Fun isn’t hard…
